Power cord grips used in this product: Type”Y”.
Assembly design in this product causes insulation to be affected
by liquid spills or splashing.
Before gaining access to terminals, all
power circuits shall be disconnected.
We do not recommend using power cord
extensions with compressors. Using that type of
extension cause power drops resulting in motor potency loss
and overheating. Instead of using an extension cord increase
the compressor’s action scope connecting a longer hose into
the outlet. Connect additional hose lengths as needed.
DESCRIPTION
Compressors not using oil are designed for the “Do It Yourself”
mode for a large variety of jobs at home and for automobiles.
This type of unit works with no oil. Compressed air produced
in this tool could cause humidity. Set a water filter or a dryer
if the application needs dry air.

explosive sources, including the compressor.
6. Do not smoke when spaying flammable substances.
7. When spraying wear a mask. Work in ventilated areas to
prevent health problems and fire.
8. Do not aim spraying materials towards the compressor. Set
the compressor as far away as possible from the spraying
area to minimize substance accumulation into the
compressor.
9. When spraying or cleaning with solvents or other toxic
chemical substances follow the instructions indicated by
the chemical substance manufacturer.
ASSEMBLY
Important: Set the compressor in a ventilated, clean area where
room temperature is not higher than 98.6 ºF
Set the compressor where there is 18” minimum space around
it and the wall. Objects up close may block ventilation.
Do not set the compressor air intake near areas
exposed to fumes, paint, sand or any other type of
contamination. These types of substances could damage the
motor.
